Trinamool Congress to Implement 'One Person, One Post' Policy
The Trinamool Congress is implementing a 'one person, one post' rule in some areas.
This means people who are councillors in cities won't hold another party leadership role at the same time, especially in the same area.
This aims to prevent conflicts when someone has multiple jobs.
This idea was pushed earlier by Abhishek Banerjee but is now being acted upon.
It's focused on urban areas and aims to help party members be more effective.
The changes are set to happen before the next elections and are focused at municipal level.
Trinamool Congress will partially implement the 'one person, one post' policy.
Implementation focuses on party councillors in urban civic bodies.
The policy aims to prevent conflicts of interest.
Abhishek Banerjee initially pushed for this policy.
New leaders have been selected in some district organizations.
